Large company, big mandate. Nice combination of technology & FMCG. Good bosses, decentralized decision making. Company at the cusp of a big change.

Cons

Slow, bureaucratic. Too much of the old guard still around. Way too Euro-centric still. Not cost effective. Some shortsightedness on performance metrics.
